  • Title: Body temperature variability (Part 2): masking influences of body temperature variability and a review of body temperature variability in disease.
    Author: Kelly GS.
    Journal: Altern Med Rev; 2007 Mar; 12(1):49-62. PubMed ID: 17397267.
    Abstract:
    This is the second of a two-part review on body temperature variability. Part 1 discussed historical and modern findings on average body temperatures. It also discussed endogenous sources of temperature variability, including variations caused by site of measurement; circadian, menstrual, and annual biological rhythms; fitness; and aging. Part 2 reviews the effects of exogenous masking agents - external factors in the environment, diet, or lifestyle that can be a significant source of body temperature variability. Body temperature variability findings in disease states are also reviewed.
